If the group has contracted all of the function space, requests typically are referred to the group contact for approval. Approved events would then be handled directly with Event Services with function space at the hotel’s normal prevailing room rental rates and will be subject to the hotel’s standard contract terms and conditions.

  • Modernism Resources
    THIS PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK Hawaii Modernism Context Study 4.1 Specific Building Types 4.1.1 Low and Mid-Rise Commercial and Office Buildings Many of the remaining one to six story commercial and office buildings today are perhaps the most endangered building type of the post-World War II period. They stand on business zoned lands capable of supporting greater densities than the current structures provide. As a result, a large number of these structures have already disappeared from the landscape, especially in Waikiki. Most of the post-World War II, low-rise commercial or office buildings are of masonry construction, often concrete block, with the wood State Savings Plaza (1973) in Kaneohe designed by Johnson-Reese & Associates being a rare exception to this rule. All are modern in style, displaying an assortment of variations related to the movement, ranging from the vestigial rounded corners of streamline moderne to mid-century modern to formalism and expressionism. Most fall under the stylistic classification of mid-century modern, but some employing folded plate roofs or curvilinear roof forms that are expressionist in character, while others with a strong sense of symmetry and pronounced columns represent formalist ideas. Distinctive architectural features include such elements as flat roofs, thin, flat cantilevered concrete canopies or awnings, strong right angles and simple cubic forms, rounded corners, aluminum framed store fronts and entry doors, and projecting vertical elements, which often carried the name of the building. Exterior walls may be smooth concrete, painted concrete block, or clad with veneers such as lava rock, sandstone or thin slabs of Arizona sandstone.
